In semiconductor laser structures, scattering times were classically obtained by fits to experiment. Although this allows one to fit experimental spectra, this “theory” has no predictive capability. A microscopic inclusion of scattering, on the other hand, is very complex and time-consuming. We attempt to remedy this dilemma by extracting effective scattering rates from a microscopic calculation and using these in a relaxation time model, obtaining good agreement with a microscopic model for the general features. We discuss dependencies of relaxation times on different parameters, e.g. carrier distribution and band structure.
